+What is the difference between SculpSure™ and CoolSculpting™?

First off, it is worth mentioning that the results from both Sculpsure™ and CoolSculpting™ are about the same. You can expect a 20-25% improvement in the treated area with either procedure. On average it takes 4 sculpsure applicators or 4 coolsculpting applicators to treat an abdomen, so it is fairly easy to compare technologies.

TIME DIFFERENCE: Whereas CoolSculpting™ takes on average 1 hour per applicator, to treat an abdomen with 4 applicators it would take 4 hours. With SculpSure™ the same area with 4 abdominal applicators can run in just 25 minutes. Similarly, treating the love handles with CoolSculpting can take 4 hours if using 2 cool-curve applicators on each side, whereas with SculpSure both love handle can be treated simultaneously in just 25 minutes.

PRICE DIFFERENCE: Since the SculpSure™ system is so much more time efficient, the cost per applicator is much less. We charge just $350 per applicator for SculpSure™, whereas with CoolSculpting each applicator typically costs $600 and up!

COMFORT: With SculpSure™ there is no suction or end of procedure massage - the two most uncomfortable parts of the CoolSculpting™ procedure.

TIME TO RESULTS: Results come a little sooner with SculpSure™ than with CoolSculpting™ (6wks-3mo vs 2-4mo).

SIDE EFFECTS: Periodic pains and numbness up to weeks-months has been reported with CoolSculpting™ whereas there has been no reported side effects from SculpSure™. In addition bruising is not uncommon from CoolSculpting™'s suction applicators.

+How long do results last?

Results are permanent! You see, after we reach puberty fat cells are never gained or lost, but rather they expand and contract with respect to the amount of fat stored inside of them. When we remove fat cells with SculpSure, they are gone for good. Now if you go on a donut diet, you will still be able to accumulate more fat, however it will tend to deposit more readily in areas that were not treated with SculpSure™.

+What is the cost for SculpSure™?

Our competitive pricing is just $350 per applicator. It often takes four applicators to treat an abdomen and 2 for each love handle (as the treatment is individually tailored, you may require more or less applicators per area).

+What sort of result can I expect?

You can expect to see a 20-25% improvement in the area treated. What does this mean? Tuck you thumb behind the rest of your fingers and keep your other 4 fingers extended. Now if those 4 fingers represent the depth of the area treated, one cycle would remove about 1 fingers-worth. It's not the best example but hopefully it helps. The point is, it's a good procedure and often one treatment cycle is all that is needed, however it can be repeated after a couple of months to achieve even better results!

+What areas can you treat with SculpSure™?

While the abdomen and flanks (love handles) have FDA clearance, because the SculpSure applicators are so flexible we can treat many other areas "off label" including the arms, back, inner and outer thighs, and under the chin.

+If I had CoolSculpting™ in the past, can I still do SculpSure™?

We have treated many people with who have had Coolsculpting™ before to either achieve a better result in a previously treated area, or to treat a brand new area. Sometimes CoolSculpting™ can lead to small untreated areas between treatment applicators (known as shark-bites). We also have had success treating these small areas with SculpSure™.

+If I had liposuction in the past, can I still do SculpSure™?

That's a tough question. If the liposuction did not fully remove all of the fat in the area(s) treated, then yes, SculpSure can help. On the other hand, if there is really no fat left under the skin but it is the deep (visceral) fat causing the abdomen to enlarge, then unfortunately SculpSure is not the answer. It is best you come in for a consultation to see if we can recommend SculpSure™ to you or not.

+How do I know if I am a better candidate for SculpSure™ or an advanced liposuction procedure like AquaLipo™ combined SmartLipo™?

Most people are candidates for either. The question becomes how much result do you want to achieve in what sort of time frame - and are you OK with a minimally invasive procedure or is that out of the question. SculpSure™, although an excellent procedure, cannot deliver the results of a well done liposuction procedure. SculpSure™ can get 25% of the fat whereas liposuction can get 100%. In addition liposculpsure results are immediate whereas SculpSure™ takes a couple months. That said, there is no risk and no downtime with SculpSure™. Both are great options and the decision falls on the patient.

It is worth noting here that not all liposuction is the same. Many doctors still perform the old style lipo procedures where they have to put their patients to sleep and there is quite a bit of bruising and swelling. Our AquaLipo™ combined with SmartLipo™ procedure is done wide awake with laughing gas, and at 1 week after the procedure, it's rare to see any bruising. In addition these techniques allow us to use such tiny cannulas the holes we make are only 1.5mm (smaller than the tip of a ball point pen). Anyway, that's off topic, but it is good to know your options!

+OK, I'm impressed with SculpSure™. Now why should I get my treatment with you?

We are one of the first locations to adopt SculpSure™ technology and have been using Cynosure lasers for quite some time including their SmartLipo™, Cellulaze™, and LazerLift™ (Precision Tx™).

We are comfortable using SculpSure™ off label to treat additional areas such as the back (bra bulge), inner thighs, outer thighs, the arms, and under the chin.

We have really fast wifi and an iPad with lots of 25 minute long TV shows.

Dr. Malek and Dr. Rome are personally involved with every SculpSure™ consult and treatment. You will never see a non MD consultant, and one or both doctors will be conducting your procedure as well. That above and beyond the standard of care for this procedure, but that's how we do things!

We stand by our results! SculpSure™ can get 25% of the fat, however sometimes our patients want even more of a result. In these cases, if you purchased a package deal for treating multiple areas, we will honor your per applicator discounted rate for all future re-treatments. Alternatively, if you had SculpSure with us and want to just get rid of all the fat remaining at once, we offer $500 off our AquaLipo™ combined with SmartLipo™ procedure which remains the gold standard for fat removal.
